Data centre intelligence and dashboard
Examine where large electricity demand loads may be placed on the power grid
Tackle unprecedented demand growth
After years of flatline demand, data centres are reshaping power markets: they need massive power and they need it now. The US alone is facing down 120GW extra generation in just four years.
As grids and investors alike scramble to tackle the new reality, it can feel like strategy is superseded by fire-fighting. Shocks appear from all directions and siloed views of demand, supply, pricing and infra leave teams unprepared.
But what if you could join the dots to see the entire value chain?
A single, 360° view of data centre demand growth
Locate and examine large demand loads
Get a comprehensive overview of large demand loads from data centres and campuses in all pipeline stages, visualising their locations on our map and examining them by key attributes, including:
- Planned capacity
- Cost
- Developer

Analyse grid and infrastructure impact
Carry out detailed geospatial analysis to understand the impact of data centre demand on the grid - identifying capacity constraints and connectivity opportunities to inform your investment decisions.
- Examine nearby infrastructure by layering in existing power plants, substations and power lines
- Uncover renewable energy potential by layering in data maps including mean wind speed and solar irradiation
Uncover the effect on market dynamics
Benchmark locations to find states, markets and zones with the highest announced data centre site capacity and compare this against price, supply and demand to uncover how planned developements will influence market dynamics.
- Examine how demand is predicted to increase and supply generation and installation capacity is expected to change over time to meet demand.
- Model how energy prices are predicted to change on the back of data centre demand loads.
- In the US, access our nodal pricing data from our proprietary sensor network to understand pricing volatility at the node level near data centres and campuses.
